I'm trying to force a <label/> and its <input/> to stay on the same line.
I'm using the form-control class to make the <input/> pretty. However, when I do so, it REALLY wants to put itself on a separate line. I'm avoiding using rows and columns because I want the label right next to the textbox, not to move around depending on the size of the screen.
<div>
<label class="form-label">Search</label>
<input type="text" class="form-control">
</div>
I want this:
Search [______________________]
I get this:
Search
[_____________________]
How do I force them to stay on the same line?
What you are looking for is referred by Bootstrap as an inline form or horizontal form.
<form class="form-inline" role="form">
<div class="form-group">
<label class="form-label">Search</label>
<input type="text" class="form-control">
</div>
</form>
Make sure your form has the form-inline class on it and realistically they should be wrapped in a form-group. The inline form make everything in one line.
<form class="form-horizontal" role="form">
<div class="form-group">
<label class="col-sm-2 control-label">Search</label>
<div class="col-sm-10">
<input type="text" class="form-control">
</div>
</div>
</form>
When using form-horizontal, the form-group acts like a row, so you can move content to separate lines :) With that, you would need to use grid properties so the label/input is properly aligned.
